After NYS Young Republicans club was disbanded for praising Hitler, the NYC Young Republican club chapter is rolling out the red carpet for leaders of Germany’s Nazi-cosplaying AfD party.
I condemn it in the strongest of terms, as should my New York GOP colleagues. The AfD is not welcome in NY-10.

Yet…Mike Dukakis was humiliated in 1988 for wearing a helmet in a tank, despite the fact he served in the U.S. Army (in Korea), unlike Cadet Bone Spurs. Amazing.

For the first time in decades, I handed my successor an air traffic controller workforce that was growing instead of shrinking.
Disturbingly, the Trump administration can't or won't say whether that’s still the case.

Translation: "Zelenskyy is refusing to sacrifice his country to make me look good so I can win a prize, and if he keeps it up, I'm going to punish him for it. I will only pretend to care if I think I can get a win and something to brag about."
Trump on Ukraine: there’s a meeting on Sat. We’ll see whether or not we attend the meeting. They want us to attend. And we’ll be attending the meeting in Europe if we think there’s a good chance, and we don’t want to waste a lot of time. We think it’s negative. We want it to get settled.

This hit me like a gut punch, because I lost a good friend to glioblastoma. I wish Jason Collins a speedy & full recovery, knowing that Stage 4 Glioblastoma has always been terminal.
